STANDEN-PEARSON POTATO PLANTERS -
BELT FEEDS MEAN GENTLE PLANTING

LARGE HOPPERS - LESS TIME FILLING, MORE TIME PLANTING!

POTATO PLANTING TECHNOLOGY AT ITS BEST!

STANDEN-PEARSON potato planters provide accurate planting; seed spacing, planting depth and soil covering are all carefully controlled for optimum results.

Gentle seed handling is ensured by a controlled seed flow to the cups; the moving floor belt only activated when seed is required. STANDEN-PEARSON planters are renowned for their rugged reliability; these planters are designed to give many years trouble free service.

Strong chassis designs allow class leading hopper capacities, so you spend less time filling, more time planting! The SP-200 2-row tractor mounted model (pictured) has a 1.5 tonne hopper capacity.

All our planters feature latest STANDEN-PEARSON potato planting technology with advanced depth control, soil flow management, and highly effective optional bed forming hood systems.

Our unique QUAD planting options enable growers to produce high quality uniform specification salad potatoes; please email or talk to our sales people for details of suitable soil types etc.

The range of STANDEN-PEARSON potato planters is probably the most comprehensive available anywhere, from 2-row to 9-row machines offering world class planting solutions to discerning growers all over the world

SMOOTH, ACCURATE POTATO PLANTING

Stainless steel openers provide smooth even furrow opening. Stainless steel floating side shields control soil flow within the bed. Manual or automatic (optional) depth control ensures even planting. An adjustable soil divider further enhances soil distribution within the optional bed forming hood

MOVING HOPPER BELTS – GENTLE POTATO SEED HANDLING

Seeds are presented to the planting cups by a moving floor in the hopper. An infra-red proximity sensor controls the hydraulic floor drive, maintaining a regulated level of seeds in the cup area. In this way seeds are not dragged through other seeds, keeping chit damage to a minimum

LARGE DIAMETER UPPER BELT ROLLERS

Upper cup belt rollers are much larger diameter, reducing the speed at which cups change direction on their journey to the openers, thus lessening the associated ‘flicking’ action and possible chit breakage

UNIQUE ‘PLACEMENT’ CUP DESIGN

Advanced design 'PLACEMENT’ cups reflect our continual pursuit of ever higher levels of planting accuracy. The reverse side of the cups features a unique profile to keep seeds at the centre of the cup as they travel to the openers. Less seed roll, with better soil covering results in superior establishment, less greening too
